Given PureFlix's original films being gobshite like God's Not Dead and Old Fashioned, it would still be shit.
Besides, this goes well with their other tragedy-exploiting film, I'm Not Ashamed, which was about Columbine.

Hollywood producers already in Thailand to acquire rights to Cave rescue story

According to them God's not Dead is "inspired by true events".
If they do justice to this story and compensate accordingly to the kids, coach and the family of the dead rescuer, I'd say bring it on. This will hurt no one. All the contrary in fact!
Hold the fuck on! Pure flix?? Aren't they the Christian movie making machine that won't stop releasing bullshit after bullshit? Not them!
Coach can be played by Dwayne Johnson. The cave is alive and haunted for some reason. Add some big explosions as the kids and coach barely make it out of the cave at the end.
Next summer's Hollywood blockbuster right there.

Did anything become of this? I googled and can't find anything after the casting
I'm so fucking down with this. Someone call Ben Stiller.
Only the brave had all the people die. That movie put in perspective just how heroic fire fighters are and how brave that team was. It showed how they died heroes and should be remembered for there brave actions.
Honesly I have no problem with Hollywood adapting tragedies becuase it helps shine a light on the real heroes that helped in this hard times. If they make this movie right then it can be really fucking good and emotional and show you how heroic every single person was in this mission.
But it's the gods not dead poeple... so will see
I personally think any film adaptation should spend a not insignificant amount of time focusing on Saman Kunan, the Thai diver who died during the rescue efforts. The bravery of him and the other rescuers is the kind of thing that is likely to be overlooked.
Kinda doubt that dude, that's the kind of thing they'll double down on. Probably have it be a flown in american navy seal too

You're implying that's not actually a thing that happens in Hollywood movies, right?
I'm taking you are already setting an early review appointment?
That is, if they don't change all the heroes to white people. Or doing it like Argo, claiming everything is USA USA USA USA USA while completely eliminates the role many other non-USA citizens played in the crisis, some of them really significant too.
In other words, don't get your hopes up.
Apologies. I had a total brainfart (too many Android tabs open) and IDKW I thought I was talking to Mandrake! (Admiral Neon Elk )
God, I miss his reviews.

There's been a lot of articles here about a local man (Finland) Mikko Paasi who is one of the divers rescuing them, he's been hailed as a hero. Hoping they make him the main character!

Tarantino of all people is making a movie about the night Sharon Tate and her friends were butchered on the orders of Charles Manson so, yes, I wouldn't really expect much from Hollywood about sensitivity.
Ah yeah, I still remember those days. Hollywood sure was a beacon of light. Can't believe it's already almost two years since they made movies purely for art or telling compassionate stories, spreading love all over.
I don't understand the Scarlett Johansson jokes? When has she played a male part?
12 Christian boys and their young priest are on a spiritual holiday and get trapped in a cave. They get rescued by Marky Mark.

I mean, I get it. And I do want a movie about this. It's a riveting story with a miraculous ending (although there was a tragedy along the way). But yeah, one would wish there was some breathing room.
